Can I provide multiple function definitions for different input arguments?

Hello

Is it possible to provide multiple function definitions? Something like in the official documentation, e.g.:

X = rand(n)

X = rand(sz1,...,szN)

X = rand(sz)

X = rand(___,typename)

X = rand(___,'like',p)

I would like to use it for my self-defined class, like:

T = tensor(X)

T = tensor(v1,...,vn)

Where X is a cell array and v's are arrays.

You can only do that using

doc varargin

followed by a load of lines of big ugly code handling all the various different cases you support. Unfortunately there is no easy way of function overloading like in some other languages.
